The main task of the Polish Platform for Handling Investment Projects (POPI)
is fast and accurate implementation of broadly understood investment projects,
which is (as the Polish Ministry of Health maintains) one of the most important
activities of the Ministry of Health. In order to bypass many entities that
would be involved in the implementation of a given investment, the Ministry of
Health brought to life the POPI platform, which automated the above-mentioned
process and thus facilitated navigation in the area of investment projects and
increased the number of investment projects implemented in the area of health.
The platform for servicing investment projects of the Polish Ministry of Health
is a place bringing together entities that are directly involved in the process
of launching investment projects. As part of this platform, entities can apply
for funds for any investment co-financed by the Ministry of Health.
Additionally, the POPI platform can function as a place where applications are
assessed, and the given investments are monitored and settled. It should also
be remembered that mutual contact regarding the implementation of specific
investments is also part of POPI.
The Investment Project Support Platform (POPI) is available at the
following address:
It is also important that in order to fully use the POPI platform, it is
required to set up an account through a certified profile, and to submit the
application with the use of a qualified electronic signature.

When we are currently witnessing a constantly changing environment, the phrase ‘food law’ or ‘agriculture law’ is not sufficient to describe the situation by legal terms. What can be observed in the market is that the food sector and new technologies sector have stepped up cooperation and co-work. Such new products as vegan meat, soya, coconut, almond milk, mechanic bees are a result of food-tech cooperation. The food tech cooperation comprises a considerable part of the market in Poland, effecting in the creation of a number of start-ups, such as for example:
Qurczak
which produces a unique plant- based alternative to poultry meat, made of fibers
that resemble chicken breast;
Frens
which produces a hypoallergenic and easily digestible food for dogs containing
insect protein;
KuMin.Sys
which is an IT tool for catering industry to help better plan production
volumes, optimization of costs and reduction of food waste.
The
above start-ups function in the Foodtech accelerator https://foodtech.ac.
This is one of the many examples of enhanced cooperation between food and
technology (especially IT) sectors. Behind these innovative ideas there is
always specific legal regulation which controls and moderates the business
reality.
